口語式短文：去日本旅遊
Trips to Japan :
• I have been to Japan three times. The first time was when I was in the summer before junior kindergarten I went to Tokyo with my parents.
• I was not yet four years old at that time, so I was admitted free into the Tokyo DisneySea Park. It's a pity that I was too young for most of the games. I only get impressions of the volcano in the park.
• We had also visited the Ghibli Museum and Sanrio Puroland -- a Hello Kitty theme park. But I thought the most entertaining place was the JR Transportation Museum.
• The second time I went to Japan was in the June before I attended the elementary school. Mom took me to Hokkaido. Although it was near summer time, we still could see patches of residual ice on the roadside.
• We had strolled the Otaru Canal, enjoyed the sight of beautiful seas of tulip flowers, and paid a visit to the Hell Valley of Noboribetsu to watch the landscape of terrestrial heat. But I was most pleased with the experience of taking a helicopter to have a bird's eye view of Lake Toya from high above in the air.
• The third time I went to Japan was when I was in the summer before third grade I went to Kyushu with my family. Shirley and John had joined me, too.
• The first night we stayed at Huis Ten Bosch. There were canals and windmills over there. The scenery was wonderful.
• We had an intriguing experience of paying a visit to the smoke-laden crater lake of Mount Aso. Grandpa said that the lake water was real hot spring water. It's a pity we couldn't soak ourselves in the hot water down there.
• That night we stayed at yurts in Aso Farm Village. It felt very special. My first experience of riding a horse was at the farm. John and I rode on one horse together. We really enjoyed ourselves!
